Ruins of Gore Orphanage
A large orphanage, housing over 100 children, once stood here. On his way to the outhouse, young boy fell, dropped his lantern and thus set the entire complex ablaze. None but the boy managed to escape. Today, if one stands in the remains of the building, he will hear the screams of the children and infants that perished in the inferno.

Here is a link from Cleveland.com telling about the story. I’m from Cleveland’s west-side which is where this story takes place and have heard about it all my life. My mom grew up in this area and I have relatives who currently live there. My crew and I will hopefully be investigating it soon.
